Hi, I am new here... can anyone give me any advice. Was diagnosed with PCOS in January and told I most likely have Endo aswell and was refered for a diagnostic laparoscopy to confirm. I have been in continuous pain for the past 2 months so I called to see when I will have the laparoscopy and was told there is a 2 year waiting list!! Now I don't mind waiting 6 months as I know the NHS is under pressure but 2 years is just ridiculous. I cannot wait that long with this amount of pain and I can't afford to go private. Surely this is unacceptable? Thanks.

Unfortunately theyre more than snowed under and pain is just one aspect to deal with. Infertility and lide saving is yet another .. I waited 12 months from first lap to treatment under priority. I think waiting times differ throughout the UK too. But in saying that i had surgery and it fixed nothing, actually made it worse. If it is endo, surgery may not help. You could try the pill/coil/painkillers why you wait. They are actually treatments, just as much as surgery is!
